Using Passwords, Port Security, and Authorized IP Managers To Protect Against Unauthorized Access
Configuring and Monitoring Port Security
Using Passwords, Port
Security, and Authorized IP
b. Which devices (MAC addresses) are authorized on each port (up to 8
per port)?
c. For each port, what security actions do you want? (The switch
automatically blocks intruders detected on that port from transmit-
ting to the network.) You can configure the switch to (1) send intru-
sion alarms to an SNMP management station and to (2) optionally
disable the port on which the intrusion was detected.
d. How do you want to learn of the security violation attempts the switch
detects? You can use one or more of these methods:
– Through network management (That is, do you want an SNMP
trap sent to a net management station when a port detects a
security violation attempt?)
– Through the switch’s Intrusion Log, available through the CLI,
menu, and web browser interface
– Through the Event Log (in the menu interface or through the CLI
show log command)
2. Use the CLI or web browser interface to configure port security operating
and address controls. The following table describes the parameters.
